Last week, Kathy McKenzie, who does freelance writing for the Monterey County Herald, met me at a Starbucks in Salinas.  Kathy was professional, yet cordial – a rare trait.  I thoroughly enjoyed our interview.   I especially like the coverage she gave to my fellow tour authors.   As the big date approaches, I’m feeling a growing sense of purpose and direction.  I can’t wait to personally thank our nation’s heroes for their sacrifices and listen to their stories.  Cheers to America’s servicemen and women!
